The peculiarities of cochlear implant (CI) processor fitting in children with auditory neuropathy spectrum disorders (ANSD) were investigated. At the 1-st fitting of the CI processor a standard protocol of parameters was used in all patients, including patients with cochlear nerve hypoplasia. After the initial fitting session, the behavioral tonal thresholds with CI in 55% of patients were 30-35 dB, in 32.% of patients — 40-50 dB. After 3-6 months, 65% of children with ANSD showed significant progress in auditory-speech development, which made it possible to use the standard protocol of tuning parameters for them with the most comfortable and threshold levels of electrical stimulation adjusted according to the child’s reactions. The best dynamics was observed in 2 children with presynaptic ANSD with a confirmed DFNB9 (OTOF) gene mutation. In 35% of children, there was no progress in distinguishing speech signals and instability of reactions to sounds persisted after 6 months using of CI and speech therapy training, despite the low tonal thresholds of hearing. In these children the coding strategy was changed, the stimulation frequency was reduced, and the pulse width was increased. This helped to improve the discrimination of sounds with CI and progress in the child’s speech development. The results demonstrate that children with ANSD require more frequent correction of CI processor settings: 1st year — every 3 months, then at least 2 times a year until the optimal coding strategy and settings are achieved. To predict the effectiveness of CI and determine the optimal tactics for setting up the CI processor in patients with ANSD, the preoperative examination should include MRI of the cerebellopontine angle to detect anomalies of the cochlear nerve and genetic examination to identify mutations that cause hearing impairment in patients with ANSD.
